Equinix Inc. (ISIN US29444U7033) closed at USD 1,059.26 on Nasdaq on September 22, 2026, gaining 0.19 percent from the previous close. The data point comes as the data-center operator carries a second-quarter 2026 revenue increase of 16 percent to USD 2.625 billion into the next trading session.

Revenue growth reaches 16 percent

According to WOWK-TV on September 22, 2026, Equinix reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of USD 2.625 billion, up 16 percent from the year-earlier period. The same report said monthly recurring revenue grew 11 percent, while annualized gross bookings increased 23 percent.

The operating comparison gives the stock a concrete growth anchor: bookings expanded 7 percentage points faster than monthly recurring revenue in the reported quarter. That spread points to demand entering the pipeline faster than recurring revenue is being recognized, although the figures alone do not establish how quickly bookings will convert into revenue.

AI infrastructure adds demand

Equinix added a record 9,700 net interconnections in the second quarter of 2026, according to WOWK-TV. The report connected the demand to networking, cloud and artificial-intelligence infrastructure and stated that Equinix raised its full-year 2026 guidance and long-term outlook.

For the market, the combination of a 16 percent revenue increase, 23 percent bookings growth and 9,700 additional interconnections creates a more detailed picture than revenue alone. The counter-factor is valuation: the September 22 market snapshot showed a market capitalization of USD 104.52 billion and a price-to-earnings ratio of 67.87 in a separate filing-related report from MarketBeat on September 22, 2026.

Stock remains below yearly high

Equinix traded between USD 1,047.72 and USD 1,066.51 on September 22, 2026. Its 52-week range was USD 720.62 to USD 1,128.68, placing the closing price USD 69.42 below the period high and USD 338.64 above the period low.

The close therefore sat closer to the 52-week high than to the low, while the daily gain remained limited to 0.19 percent. Trading volume reached 503,272 shares against an average volume of 495,987 shares on the same snapshot, a difference of 7,285 shares.
